Meets Taste

CAFÉ HOPPING AS A FORM OF RELAXATION

I f you’re a coffee fanatic then Bangkok might be quite a heaven right

now. An increase in popularity of café hopping as a form of relaxation
among many Bangkokers meant that the coffee shop scene here has
become increasingly competitive. And rightly so, many aesthetically
pleasing places have recently opened up to stand out as well as to satisfy these
needs. Talking about café hopping, taste is one thing but being surrounded by a
well-designed environment is as important if not more. At the end of the day, it’s
rarely ever just about the taste of the drinks themselves but the ambience also
plays a significant role. (We’ve all learnt a pretty great lesson of this from the
quarantine period). So please tighten your seat belts, come and take a ride with
us and let’s find out how design and taste go together.
